“…There has been a lot of research on the chemical modification and cross-linking of cellulose. However, starch modification was also tested with various synthetic monomers, e.g., acrylic acid [ 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 ], acrylamide [ 16 , 17 , 18 ], methacrylamide [ 19 , 20 ], acrylonitrile [ 21 ], vinyl alcohol [ 22 ], 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid [ 23 , 24 ], styrene [ 25 ], vinylimidazole [ 26 ].…”
